build: add support for section ordering

Adds support for using a section ordering file with the gold linker.
This makes it possible to reorder functions in a build to optimize for
a specific workload.

`hfsort` is a tool that can be used to generate such a file from perf-
recorded last branch record (LBR) data by running Node.js as
`node --perf-basic-prof`.
